Foot / Ankle

Pain along the bottom of the foot is most commonly caused by plantar fasciitis. It represents inflammation of the connective tissue beneath the skin of the foot. Pressure from standing, obesity, or repetitive activity stresses the tissue and small tears develop. With continued stress Plantar fasciosis may develop as inflammation is replaced by chronic degeneration instead.

Plantar Fasciitis and OC Regenerative Medicine

Treatment of plantar fasciosis may include rest and avoiding activities that cause the pain, anti-inflammatory medication, orthotics, therapy, shockwave or ultimately surgery. Surgery can lead to extended downtime, pain or complications. Other than surgery these approaches attempt to mask the pain without addressing the source of the pain. Tenex Heath TX is a new treatment option that is different because it removes the damaged tissue responsible for causing the pain stimulating the bodies natural healing response. Tenex is an ideal solution for you to quickly regain your active lifestyle.

Chronic ankle pain is often the result of previous ligament injury but can also result from chronic tendinosis. Achilles tendinosis is an example of this. The growth factors found in PRP may help lead to healing in these soft tissue problems of the ankle. Tenex therapy is well suited as a non-operative treatment of chronic achilles tendonosis. OC Regenerative Medicine can help you determine which of these treatment will most likely meet your treatment needs.
